Bill Clinton was my favorite President. Not my only one but his intelligence just awed me.

To be fair, Clinton got in trouble for the lie, not the blow-job. He did the wrong thing. He cost Al Gore the election and I was very interested in Al Gore as President. Certainly, the actions of individuals do not reflect moral bankruptcy of millions.

I will not judge all liberals by John Edwards or all Conservatives by Pete Domenici. While I don't know the back-story I will at least respect that the child was born and not aborted in secret. That would have been really repulsive. Personally, I support abortion although I feel it is over-used. But when an anti-abortion person participates in an abortion....well, I'm sure you see where I'm going with this.

I agree with all but Al Gore.Al lost the election by pulling away from Clinton and picking Lieberman for his VP.Joe was a nasty piece of work ranting about how he was chosen. So much so,I shouted at the TV,"There is only one chosen one!"
As for Pete,he had the nerve to vote to impeach Clinton.He was right in the middle of that witch hunt!

Yeah, Lieberman was Al's way of being macho.

Do you think that politicians are not hypocrites? Most of them are. All that lying to get elected really jades them. I was just trying to suggest that we not judge half the population by the actions of a few of the political class.
